I read it many years ago. At the time I had never heard of
combinatorial game theory, and it's a bit hard to grasp the theory by
reading this book. Perhaps you should read "Winning Ways" first:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d.html/?a=1568811306

The whole theory is fascinating, but in the case of go it's only
relevant when the game has been reduced to a number of completely
independent small regions (if at all). I don't have the book with me
to check, but I think they didn't have a good way to analyze kos.
